Doug Ford's new commercial proudly talks about getting rid of homeless encampments and safe injection sites, adding more prisons, and making harsher bail. He's just throwing every right wing issue at the wall like rancid spaghetti and hoping it sticks. Shocked he's not cancelling the Pride parade.

There will be many thoughts and implications of today’s MOU with Alberta and its impact on climate and resource policies. But these 2 bullets are not unimportant. After Danielle Smith effectively shut down new renewables, the MOU now forces them back on table. Good. #cdnpoli

Funny how those that call people sensitive snowflakes, claim to support free speech and are anti cancel culture are celebrating the banning of a flag in schools. If you see a flag and it makes you want to try sucking a cock, newsflash. It's not the flag.

NEW: Solar plus batteries cheaper than gas. “A new report finds that 24/7 ‘firm’ clean energy is cheaper than coal & gas in many parts of the world. The Iran War may catalyze faster adoption.” It’s just really dumb not to lean in on renewables. Unless your personal profit requires oil dependency…

So far this campaign Mark Carney has taken over THREE times the questions from reporters than Pierre Poilievre. No screening of questions. He also allows follow ups, which any journo knows are crucial, get beyond a dodge talking point. If you have the ideas and policy, why are you afraid? #cdnpoli

What a load of crap. The Globe is publishing op-eds from any former hack that will defend the CPC. They note that he worked for Mulroney and Charest… But Peter White also worked alongside Conrad Black to build up Hollinger. He convinced Black to go into the newspaper business in 1969. …2

He must offer Canada ideas for a coherent national project, not just a laundry list of complaints

I've been waiting for this updated travel advisory. "If you are denied entry, you could be detained while awaiting deportation," the website now reads." Travel to the US has already plummeted. It's only going to get worse. #cdnpoli www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

At the end of this trade war, America is going to be left shattered and isolated. Meanwhile, the rest of the world will forge closer trade and security ties, resulting in stronger and more resilient economies that are less tied up in U.S. drama.

Turns out today is ANOTHER good day for Pierre Poilievre to prove to Canadians that he’s actually capable of passing the standard & normal security check, & get the security clearance that he’s refused to get. Until he does, I’m continuing to assume that it’s because he knows that he can’t pass it.

'Just say thank you': Lutnick says Canada is acting like Ukraine nationalpost.com/news/canada/...
Lutnick: Think about it. The biggest trading partner in the whole world that is vital to Canada’s existence says, “I’m unhappy,” and they respond negatively, you know why? Because for 20 years, 30 years, they’ve gotten away with it. It’s like Ukraine. They came in. You imagine coming into this country, sitting in the Oval Office, having received $300 billion in aid from U.S. and military and NATO and all the rest, and the first words out of your mouth aren’t thank you. Just say thank you. God knows, just say thank you. When the biggest client, the biggest trading partner, the most important counter-party you have, who really, really matters to you, the first thing you do is showing immeasurable respect. Say, “Thank you. I want to work it out with you. I want you to be happy.”
